UK TV box with Sky Sports

Post by l112a6 »

Out and about I've seen a few advertisements in toilets advertising SKY SPORTS and a phone number.

Due to incredibly bad service I'm leaving CTH.
I only had it for weekend football and Formula 1 so a service offering Sky Sports would be perfect.
(Before you say I can go out to watch it all, I do half the time but the other half I like to catch it at home)

Has anyone got a box that picks up UK SKY SPORTS? Or know anything about it?

Thanks

If its loads of sport you want (15 channels including 4 HD), including every Premiership match live, 365 Sport is a good, inexpensive option.

Very few EPL games shown live on Sky Sports this season anyway.

Try www.gobox.tv Irish sky with Satanta. The service is faultless with all sky channels and movies.

I use ilikehd which can be installed on any Android box or watched via their website - it has all the Fox sports and Sky Sports channels along with a load of other channels for 350bt a month

Unfortunately with my current internet connection it's kind of hit-and-miss and drops out quite a lot, but I had similar issues with 365 Sport and any other online service I've used. I don't know if anybody else has had better experiences.

It is true that you need a good Internet connection. This is why you should take advantage of the trial period.

As an example, when I had 3BB, my service was similar to that described by Pleng. However, others with 3BB operate with no problems whatsoever. It is not necessarily the provider, but often the quality of your personal connection.

My connection is virtually trouble free these days.

365 Sports advertise a 30 day money back guarantee online, so it's worth a shot.
